Since the other forces were deliberately causing trouble, adding one million was undoubtedly the best countermeasure. Not only could it show their determination, but it could also make the opponent feel very uncomfortable. Moreover, it could also get what they wanted with the smallest loss.
However, Zhou Chen was not that unhappy. Instead, he was very happy because no matter how much money he added, it would be higher than he had imagined. He would still earn it.
" 2.21 billion. Is there anyone who wants to raise the bid? This is…"
It was still the same old thing, but it was not something that could be done with just a few words to arouse the interest of others. At the very least, the kings of the large countries that Zhou Chen had invited did not have any thoughts. As the kings of a country and the rich people of many large families and factions, they were very clear about the terror of the World Government. Although they had not shown themselves, it would be extremely troublesome for them if they were exposed, so they had never thought of competing.
"Dad, do you want to bid?”Marko laughed and said to White Beard,""This is a Heavenly Dragon person, the first Heavenly Dragon person to be auctioned off in history. Even if we don't want to buy him, we can still bid for him.”
The white-bearded man laughed out loud." Sure, sure. Tsk tsk. To think that this kid could think of buying a Heavenly Dragon."”
"2.22 billion!"
When he heard that even White Beard had started bidding, Zhan Guo's expression became even uglier. However, he knew that he could not do anything to these people, so he could only silently increase the bid by another one million. As long as others increased the bid, he would increase it by one million.
After such repeated bidding, the price actually only rose from 2 billion to 2.35 billion. What was worse was that it seemed that no one else was interested in continuing to raise the price.
Zhou Chen shouted a few times but did not bid again. In the end, he could only sigh and return to his normal state. He shouted," Since no one is bidding, I will now announce the results. 2,305,000,000 going once, 2,305,000,000 going twice, 2,305,000,000 going thrice. Congratulations to Admiral Sengoku of the Navy Headquarters. You have won the fifth item of this auction. Congratulations.”
When Zhou Chen announced the sale of the fifth auction item, the atmosphere of the entire auction house changed. The tense atmosphere disappeared and was replaced by a relaxed atmosphere.
"This is the first auction of our auction house, and it's also a trial auction. We invited big shots from all over the world, so the result is very perfect. Once again, I want to thank everyone for coming. Without you, this auction would not have ended perfectly."”
"There's no need to thank me. Kid, if you really want to thank me, then give me something practical. I came all the way here and didn't get anything in the end. Shouldn't I give you some compensation?”
The white-bearded man shouted at Zhou Chen. Of course, he was teasing him and did not really want anything, but he did not know what Zhou Chen was thinking.
"Senior White Beard, you're right. It's indeed our auction house's responsibility to make everyone travel so far without gaining anything. How about this? I guarantee that the next time we hold an auction, I will definitely send an invitation to everyone present. Moreover, as long as you're participating in this auction, all the items that are auctioned in the next auction will be sold at a 20% discount. What do you think?”
Although he had never done business in his previous life, some basic business operations were not difficult for Zhou Chen. Although he might lose a lot of money after a 20% discount, he naturally could not get the system's money. He could only lose his own money, but Zhou Chen gritted his teeth and decided to do so.
Money could be earned slowly, but reputation had to be made as quickly as possible. As long as these people publicized the auction house, the potential benefits would definitely be greater than the loss of a 20% discount. Moreover, it was said that the people here now, who knew if these people would win the auction at the second auction. If they didn't win, he wouldn't lose anything.
Everyone revealed satisfied expressions when they heard Zhou Chen's answer. Perhaps they did not really want the benefits, but Zhou Chen was giving them face by doing this. This made them feel very comfortable. Moreover, the auction items of this auction house were indeed extraordinary. The first time was already so sensational, and it might be even better in the future. If they could get a 20% discount, they could save a lot of money.
"Everyone who has won the auction, our auction house's payment method is different from ordinary auction houses. We don't require you to pay immediately, but we can give you some time to prepare. However, the latest is fifteen days. After fifteen days, if you are still unwilling to pay, not only will we find a way to take back the auction item, but we will also give you a severe punishment.
At this point, Zhou Chen suddenly chuckled."Perhaps in your eyes, you don't really care about the so-called punishment of our auction house. However, I feel that some things are not as simple as you think. If someone really doesn't want to pay, you can try.”
"Please bring your invitation cards with you. In these 15 days, the invitation card will automatically show the location of our payment. As long as you arrive at the place on time to pay, everything will end easily.”
Actually, there was nothing he could do about it. After all, it was the first auction, and even Zhou Chen did not know how much it would sell for. Therefore, he had no choice but to give these people time to raise money.
"However, this kind of thing is only allowed once. If you don't bring enough money or an item of the same value to the next auction, then the item will be invalid and will be blacklisted by all auction houses.”
This kind of thing was allowed once, but definitely not a second time. He did not want to spend energy to collect debts after every auction. This kind of thing was really thankless.
"Alright, I will personally deliver the items that you have won to the private room later. Those who have not won can leave this place immediately. Oh right, I forgot to tell you that the next auction will not be held at this place. As for the reason, I think everyone is smart and can definitely guess it.”
